Edit boxes - how do I do a carriage return?

[Dazzler]

People,

I have created a tall edit box and need it to insert a carriage return so the example below has 1 over 2 and not on the same lione. I have tried these with no success

$hud = GUICtrlCreateEdit("1" & @CR & "2", $x, $y, 400, 135, $ES_MULTILINE)

$hud = GUICtrlCreateEdit("1" & chr(10) & "2", $x, $y, 400, 135, $ES_MULTILINE)

$hud = GUICtrlCreateEdit("1" & chr(13) & "2", $x, $y, 400, 135, $ES_MULTILINE)

I await your wisdom.

Dazzler,

You need the $ES_WANTRETURN style and to add the text after the Edit control is created - like this:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)

$hud = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 10, 10, 400, 135, BitOR($ES_MULTILINE, $ES_WANTRETURN))
GUICtrlSetData(-1, "1" & @CRLF & "2")

GUISetState()

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

If you wonder why the BitOR is necessary, I recommend the Setting Styles tutorial in the Wiki.
